Your claim is as false as it is unintelligible. This isn't difficult:
<18-year-olds have a 4 in 1 million chance of dying from COVID

Please follow along. I did update the number in response to someone in this forum but didn't change the thread title. The original calc was done in May, but we have the benefit of two years of data now. The new estimate is closer to 5 in a million chance, but it wouldn't surprise me if the increase in rate is because of vaccine deaths, since the CDC counts deaths within 2 weeks of the second jab as being unvaxxed deaths.

From January 4, 2020 through December 25th of 2021, 803 kids from 0 to 18 years of age allegedly died of COVID-19 according to CDC data.

That's about 400 per year out of a population under 19 years old of 81,250,000. Or about 4 out of  810,250 or 1 in 200,000 chance of a person under 19-years old dying of COVID, including obese diabetic kids with cancer.

Bear in mind that that number includes morbidly obese diabetic kids with cancer. Add at least a zero if a healthy kid has a 10 times better chance than a sick kid with cancer, would take it to 5 in 10,000,000.

That number also does not take into account 99+% effective early treatment including for those with comorbidities. Add a couple more zeros for the kid of properly prepared responsible parents, would take the healthy kid's odds up to as high as 5 out of 1,000,000,000
